Church. The Crediton Church had charge of the Worship Service. A made quartette from Crediton sang, "Help me to be Holy." • Rev, L. A. Dorsch, Milverton, explained the purpose of the meeting. The majority of the people of the early chureh were slaves, but the church spread rap- idly. A conference was held in Buffalo, New York, in which lay- men, asked questions to make their daily work more meaning- ful. eaningful. A. book was pulblished and used by laymen in 1954. Another group met in Tiffin, Ohio, and asked their questions: Men and women met in Indiana, and 32 of the Annual •Conferences were re- presented. "What is my 'line," was, the question asked. It was decided that the Christian's first duty is to be Christian, no matter what his work. Sometime in our lives something happens which shows. that God was there. The people present divided into four discussion groups. - Mrs. Newelll. Geiger, Zurich, reported for the ladies. She said that "the reason we so often fail is because we are too human, and we lack will power. We should have a special• time. for Bible Study and Prayer. We should take an active part in church activities. A moth- er in the home tries to bring up her children according to God's will... Be cheerful at your work. We let things worry us too much. Parents: can witness to their child- ren. Bring people to church who do not ordinarily come. Stand up for your principles." Gordon Ratz, Crediton, reported for the Farmers' Group. "Faith and works must be closer togeth- er. There should be more prayer and Bible reading. You must show your faith by your works. We are placed here for a purpose .and that is to glorify God. Our very beet isnot good enough. Be- lieve the Bible more and believe its teachings. Farmers have close contact with nature. Farmers carry on the best way they know how in their daily work. We must give God more credit. Be a wit- ness to Christ in our daily work.. Wilmer Wein, Crediton, repor- ted for the business men. "We must be a Christian seven days a week, not just on Sunday. Jack Miner ,snpead the Gospel by means of his banded birds that had a Scripture verse attached tw their legs. Business men are put in difficult situations at Convent- ions when some men get out of hand, because of their evil eon - duct. Salesmen are put on the spot everywhere they go, being asked to buy lottery tickets. The decision that they reached was to.. stay in their own little group and abide by their convictions. Rev. G. R. Strome, Crediton, re- ported fon the ministers. "We stand in danger of being too pro- fessional in our work. The bar- rier between the minister and the layman can be eliminated if the minister gets down in mind and' though where the people are. We should love all people the way Jesus did.' • Rev. W. F. Krotz, Dashwood, spoke on Ephesians 4:1, "Worthy of our vocation." "We face a double danger that our daily life and faith have no bearing on each other. Christian faith is a seven day a week affair. A second dan- ger is that only ministers and mis- sionaries have a divine calling. Every vocation should contribute to the welfare of mankind. All are divinely called to their tasks.

NORMA SEIBER.T, S.A. Woman's Page Editor) I hope that before long my work will consist, not of writing artic- les, but in arranging what others have written, so that our page can have a more or less complete theme each week. Most of you women get magaz- ines and some doubtless keep scrapbooks of articles, sayings or poems that have appealed to you. Some of you may secretly write, or feel that you could write if you knew for sure what I wanted. With this in mind, I have looked through my own material and sel- ected a few topics I would like to touch on. during the coming months. Please do. not be offended if your article is not used at once as I may be cataloguing it away to combine with other articles under a topic. Rest assured, it will be used and appreciated at some time in the near future. It would be most encouraging to hear from some of you suggest- ing topics you would like discuss- ed. I can only know where your interest lies if you tell me. Since this is Youth Week it might be a good time to take some thought of that very special per• son, the Teen -Ager. Your Family and Mine A "teen-ager—most of you live with one or for one you may sometimes think. They can be sweet and lovable as a kitten one minute and as vicious as a strik- ing adder the next—with all the attributes .of a mule thrown in. One minute they are as full of bounce as an India rubber ball. The next usually when a job is in view, they become tired and listless and develop all kinds of horrible symptoms. They "rock" religiously with El- vis and assume the properly bored air when the strains of Lombardo are heard. We sometimes suspect this is more to uphold the accep- ted 'teenage standards than act- ual personal preference, however. As for clothes—there the less op- inions we express the better, as we are never "in the know." Whatever the current fad, we may be sure they will ALL be \veering it and it will be TIGHT. Also it will NOT be a dress. 'Sometimes you may come home, tired of shopping and find the house spotless, the dinner on and even little sister's face washed. But just when you think she has really absorbed some of the home- making ideas you have tried so hard to instil; her favourite TV program comes on, and you are left to do the dishes by yourself. When her gymnastics on the freshly polished floor, and the re- peated crooning of her favourite "jive" tune have you on the brink of insanity and you know you are going to explode and say all those things you feel like saying and you know you shouldn't—Don't! Remember that yesterday she was a child and still is little more; that growing up is hard on her too. Bear with her idiosyncrasies as best you can. Perhaps you worry too much about her. Think a little about yourself. Are you the kind of women you expect her to be? Let her enjoy these few irres- ponsible years. For tomorrow she will be a woman. A woman on whose slight shoulders will rest the future of the world. For "as its women think, so thinks the nation." If one wishes to pursue the sub- ject further, I suggest you read the two very interesting articles by Dorothy Thompson, in the Lad- ies Home Journal. The first, "Are Our Teen-Agers So Dumb?" in the November issue deals with a survey carried out in American secondary schools and universities. The February issue has an. article on "Do. American Educators Know What They are up to?"
